Today’s Speaker:
Glenn Cobbins and Judy Hubbard, Jenny Flatt from Destiny of HOPE
Destiny of H.O.P.E. was formed more than 20 years ago (1998) to address the needs of the most vulnerable populations in Columbia, Missouri. A vision of Glenn Cobbins, Senior and Judy Hubbard, the organization has engaged in youth development programming since its inception. We are planning a youth leadership development camp in late October, 2019. We are looking for local support to help create a safe and engaging event for local teens. We are particularly interested in recruiting teens who
are vulnerable and would be typically deemed “at risk.” We plan to engage 16 teens in an overnight, residential camping setting. We will have four adults who will engage with the youth around leadership development, and will be present at all times. We will utilize evidence-based programming and activities to help foster confidence and develop
leadership and life skill development among these Columbia, Missouri teens.
This initial event is part of a long-term vision to provide high quality, safe and engaging leadership activities to youth in our community. In these challenging times, it is a well-known fact that when youth interact with at least one caring adult, their likelihood for positive future outcomes is magnified.
